In a lengthy post, Joshua Martins, Nigerian singer and producer also known as JMartins, lamented the situation of things in the country.
“I’m willing to give the government time to correct things, but the government has to give me a timeline, the wait cannot be endless,” he wrote on Instagram.
“I’ve spent almost 9 times my planned budget for 3 months in 2 weeks, with no corresponding increase in income.
“If I’m expected to act like its absolutely normal and keep mum for fear of being branded anti-Buhari, or a wailer. H*ll NO!, I won’t.”
#Nofuel trended on Twitter on Tuesday, with people making various comments about the fuel scarcity situation in the country.
I would have said no need to go out anymore since #Nofuel …but you stay home….no electricity..It still boils down to…#Nofuel
